Washington's Transportation Fraternity
The Road Gang is an informal group of business and government executives, highway engineers and consultants, press and public relations specialists, company representatives, and trade association officials from the highway transportation industry in the Washington, D.C. area. The Road Gang serves the dual purpose of promoting fellowship and providing for the interchange of ideas among “Washington's Highway Transportation Fraternity.”
The organization has a current membership of about 300 individuals. More and more local highway transportation executives are attracted to the Thursday luncheon meetings. The Road gang has increased steadily in size and variety of membership. It continues to preserve its informal “off the record” atmosphere. The programs, over the years, have touched upon practically every facet of highway transportation activity. What really sparks the Road Gang is its mixture of camaraderie and formal tradition.
